    Default Autograph Tree for my Grandson's HS Graduation
    I made this tree wall hanging for my Grandson's graduation party this coming weekend. Everyone who attends can sign their name on a leaf - it will make a nice remembrance for him. The pattern is: #2153 Special Occasion Autograph Tree designed by Joan Jones for Seams Like Home - for the back, I used a Dr. Seuss fabric with the words "Oh The Places You Will Go" - seemed like the perfect backing.

    oh my gosh, that is wonderful. Pigma pens .05 size are great to use. then later heat set just to be sure. I used to swap siggy blocks like crazy years ago and the pens write easily. smaller tend to scratch rather than move.

    Love the idea--he will keep it forever. There were only 15 in my graduating class, and one was a holdover from the year before. My tree would have been almost bare. LOL
